It was a day of success across the board for girls high school soccer in Savannah Tuesday as all four local teams won playoff games. St. Vincent’s rolled to a 10-0 win over Berrien County and Savannah Arts also dominated in a 10-0 victory over Jackson. Calvary Day beat visiting Eagles Landing Christian 2-1 and Savannah Country Day came from behind to beat Strong Rock Christian 2-1.

SCD 2, STRONG ROCK 1

After a scoreless first half, Strong Rock Christian took the lead on a goal by Ashlyn Butts. But the Hornets came back when Emma Holtzclaw took a throw in and weaved through several defenders in the box before tucking away a shot from 6 yards out into the side of the goal in the 2-1 win.

“That was just a great individual effort by Emma,” Hornet coach David Hooker said. “She basically took it single-handedly past three players to score.”

The Hornets went ahead with just 3.5 minutes left when Sarah DeVaro connected with Bri Carney on a through ball. Carney saw the keeper about 7 yards off her line and chipped one over the keeper’s head from about 20 yards out.

“That was a very nice shot,” Hooker said. “It pumped us up and deflated them.”

Savannah Country Day (12-6-1) will face the winner of Aquinas and Brookstone in an Class A Elite Eight matchup Friday. The Hornets would be on the road if Aquinas wins and would host if Brookstone wins.

CALVARY DAY 2,

EAGLES LANDING CHRISTIAN 1

The Cavaliers shook off the rust from being idle for two weeks and pulled through to beat visiting Eagles Landing Christian 2-1.

Rachel Connell scored the first goal for the Cavaliers, working a give-and-go with her sister Morgan Connell. She took the final pass just inside the penalty box and finished from about 15 yards out.

Rachel Connell scored again on a pass from Rebecca Shepherd. Connell turned at the top of the penalty box and fired a shot over the head of the keeper for the winning goal.

“We had two weeks off since our last match and you could tell early on that our timing was just a little bit off,” Calvary Day coach Chad Griffin said. “We just weren’t connecting on that last pass on the final third of the field to finish.”

The Cavaliers will host First Presbyterian Friday in a Class A Elite Eight matchup.

ST. VINCENT’S 10,

BERRIEN COUNTY 0

When facing an overmatched opponent, St. Vincent’s coach Tess Tvrdy tries to establish different objectives to keep her players focused.

Tvrdy wanted her offense to increase its shots on goal, and the Saints did just that — peppering Berrien County relentlessly as St. Vincent’s rolled to a 10-0 win over the Rebels in a Class AA State playoff second round game.

Emily Drown and Baley Jackson each netted hat tricks — both scoring three goals and adding three assists. The Saints scored 10 first-half goals and the match was called for the mercy rule.

“We were practicing stretching the field and utilizing as much space as we could,” Tvrdy said. “We were making clean passes with one touch or two touches at the most. We’ve been stressing taking shots outside the 18-yard mark, and that worked for us today. We took some chances today and it paid off. We doubled our shots on goal in just a half.”

Rachel Dutton scored the first goal, and Jackson added two more in the first 10 minutes.

Drown took a pass from Jordyn Reagan and got past the Berrien keeper for a goal. Isabelle MacDonald took a cross from Drown and converted from the slot to put SVA up 5-0.

The Saints fired away from distance, narrowly missing several goals.

Reagan found the back of the net from 20 yards out in the 27th minute.

Kristen Lacey took a nice pass from Jackson about 40 yards from the goal and dribbled all the way past the keeper before scoring to make it 8-0. Jackson and Drown assisted on goals for each other to make it 10-0 at the half, and the match was ended. St. Vincent’s will host the winner of Oglethorpe Co./Lovett either Friday or Saturday at Daffin Park’s Optimist Field.

SAVANNAH ARTS 10, JACKSON 0

The Panthers dominated visiting Jackson — rolling to a 10-0 win in a Class AAA second round match at Optimist Field.

Savannah Arts will face Buford in an Elite Eight matchup Friday at Optimist at a time to be announced.

First-year coach Ron Martin said it was the first-ever berth in the Elite Eight for the Panthers, who improved to 14-4 on the season.

Amaris Wright scored a hat trick for the Panthers and put the game away when she corralled a cross from Sarah Duckworth and finished near the right post midway through the second half. The game was called for the mercy rule.

Senior forward Laikin Dooley netted a pair of goals and five other players scored for the Panthers. Dominique Kennerly scored the opening goal and added an assist, and Duckworth had a goal and two assists.
